It's a good game if you're looking for a mix between the Sims, Kitty Powers' Matchmaker, and Fallout Shelter. Keep in mind that the Developers are no longer working on the game which is a huge disappointment. Now, this does not mean that the game feels unfinished...I think it's fine as is. But I think it'd be perfect with that extra love that developers will continue to feed into their projects even after it is considered done. I love life sims and family/colony managements. This game is like Fallout Shelter injected with the Sims. I just love (almost) everything about this game. Really hits the spot for me. I love seeing what traits the kids will inherit from their parents and the little stories I can make up in my head from the different randomly generated events. That said, I was deeply saddened to find out that the developers had dropped the game. It's lovely as it is, but could really flourish into something more if the team continued to put out updates. I'd love more cosmetic customization, like freckles and vitiligo. More hair styles would be nice, not that there isn't a lot, I just love customization. That being said, if you're looking for a game in which you can keep track of and control each villager, this is not your game. Once you progress further, it's very easy to lose track of your villagers, and I normally end up focusing more on the economic side of things. Overall, good game. The art styles so cute and the UI is easy to navigate. I really just wish Ishtar Games would continue to improve the game. Honestly, there really isn't anything like this currently on the market and I would really love to see more like this.

This is surprisingly addicting! I think there's more to it than I am aware of, but I overall feel that this is a simple game to grasp and have fun with. I wish that after each game, you had stats: oldest villager, number of assassinations, couple that had the most children, etc. For replayablility, I think that after 5 or so games, I'm not really sure what else to do. Events are random so I don't feel I have much control to make each game very unique.

As a lover of social simulation and strategy games, I do enjoy Lakeburg a great deal (as demonstrated by my 140+ hours of game play at the time of writing this). You're free to customize certain aspects of your villagers including their hair, facial features, and names, and you can marry them off to suitors of your choice (the Matchmaker is a unique feature that I've never really seen in a game before). I appreciate the need to pay attention to the traits of villagers you recruit and wed to each other, as these affect how well they will perform at their assigned jobs, and these traits can be passed on to their children as well. This presents an interesting strategical challenge. I will say that this may not be for you if you're looking for "infinite" game play. Sure, there is an endless mode, meaning the game won't end after X amount of in-game years. However, there is a limited tree of unlockable buildings/careers, and the special events begin to feel repetitive after a while, but unfortunately, I don't believe the devs will be adding more content. That being said, I still recommend this game if you're looking for something "cozy" to play for a couple hours. If you work from home and you're having a slow day between projects/tasks, this is an easy and entertaining way to pass the time.

Scratches the itch to manage and let the gays kiss. it would be cool to see more genetic stats and maybe craftable/findable items that can change villagers likes/aspirations or stats (especially for royalty) also match making can get really annoying late game. It would be neat to have a building that hired villagers as match makers that allows players to approve or deny matches as they came up. The matchmaker could deal with the success of the date instead of the player late game to make it less annoying. Matchmakers could also be the ones to approve divorces but having unhappy couples stay together could give the family a debuff. sorry for the rant i just love where the game is going I'm really excited to see updates in the future :)

I'm so glad I got this game despite the concerning first two reviews. It is so so so fun. If you are like me and absolutely love the idea of matching people up and then they have kids and then you get generations of different couples and kids and genetics - you will love this too. I definitely recommend it to people who enjoy that mechanic. Also I find the matchmaking minigame very easy/not annoying, but that's just because I take a photo of the hobbies before it starts lol. I STRONGLY preferred social mode, for the record. The regular game mode feels very tedious and stressful. A little challenge is nice, but it seems more centered on the challenge. My one request is that they add more worker slots to buildings for social mode (in social mode you wind up with a lot of people).
